It is obviously just some-one's vacation program gone awry.
I've sent mail to the address mentioned in the body; anyone
who gets a message should do likewise...

In the meantime, if it is a "standard" vacation program, an
easy solution will be to adjust the list-server to send mail
with a "Precedence:" header, specifying "Bulk" or "Junk".
"Standrad" vacation-style notifies do NOT respond to messages
with those headers, nor to mail coming from an address that 
ends with the string "-list" [ie, if it were djgpp-list@...]


joe, just babbling a bit.
